Part A The mandibular condyle __________. The mandibular condyle __________. is the opening through which blood vessels and nerv
es to the lower lip and skin of the chin pass is the line of fusion between the two halves of the mandible articulates with the temporal bone to form the temporomandibular joint is the opening through which the alveolar nerve passes is the site of insertion for the temporalis muscle.
Answer: Articulates with the temporal bone to form the temporo-mandibular joint.
Explanation:
The mandibular condyle articulates with the temporal bone at the mandibular fossa. The temporal bone consists of concave depression at the squamous portion.
The mandibular condyle and the temporal bone are separated by the articular disc, it divides the joint into two distinct type of compartments. The function of the temporomandibular joint is to connect the jaw bone with the skull.
articulates with the temporal bone to form the temporomandibular joint
Explanation:
The mandible is the lower bone of the lower jaw of the human face which consists of the ramus and the front bones and teeth.
